hardwood. we now know the name of the wnba's newest basketball team. and i learned to spell it. let's begin in the south bay, though, where we see a new campus encampment. this 1 at san jose state university, calling for a cease fire in gaza message has been persistent there and another bay area campuses all around northern california. you know, it comes as we are told there will be rallies that uc merced where the regions with the university of california system will meet for 3 days. they're going to be talking about a hot button issue and here's issue number 1. it's the question of should professors and staff be barred from posting their views about the war in gaza on websites that belong to the campus. with university officials facing criticism by members of congress for not controlling hate speech against jewish students. those officials now are feeling the pressure to set boundaries on political speech that could appear to represent the university's official stance. and that's not the only agenda item for the region's in this 3 day meeting. they are also planning to require u c l a to pay cow $10 million a year.

it's to help shore up its athletic department in the wake of the collapse of the pac 12. it's called palimony. the payments follow u c l a s divorce from the pac 12 to join the big 10. the move sped up the collapse of the pac 12 conference talent and stanford are now with the a. c in the bay area is brand new wnba team finally has a name introducing the golden state valkyries, the valkyries franchises, a partnership with the golden state warriors. the name originates from maidens in north mythology who fought on the battlefield for the god, odin. the valkyries are now the 13th team in the wnba, marking the 1st expansion in league since 2008. their inaugural season begins in 2025. thrive city. it's going to host a valkyries block party this saturday to celebrate the announcement. let's take a look across the bay this morning. happy tuesday to you, everybody. oakland san francisco and san jose. we all shared that common experiences of a gray may day. just take it away.

>>every micro climate is doing something just a little bit different as we head into this afternoon. we all did wake up with that may gray but into the afternoon hours we go. it clears up fast into our inland areas with 80s and 70s in sight for us from santa rosa over into concord and walnut creek and more 70s down into the santa clara valley, but if you live along the coast, it's still cool, and it's cloudy as we head into this afternoon daytime highs. they're mostly sitting in the 50s and 60s. we're going to see breezy conditions into the evening hours tonight, but notice how there's little day to day change heading into the rest of this week forecast we have an area of high pressure sitting just offshore kind of driving in the stagnant weather pattern, so we'll continue to see 70s slowly cool down into the low 70s, at least as we head into our weekend forecast in our inland areas, but still partly cloudy skies and no big changes around the corner, at least now that may, gray is going to stick around and you'll notice it a lot more if you live along the peninsula or longer coastline if you live close to the bay, we're topping off in the upper 7. sixties this afternoon and throughout the rest of this week and will continue to see that as we head into early next week as well.

>reed>all right, jess. we continue looking for bay area bounce backs where we see them. bay area cities continue to try and find ways to get people into struggling downtown corridors. a lot of people recovering during the daytime. there was that permanence of hybrid work. it was a major issue, but at night to change for the better that maybe you've noticed. you know, yesterday we showed you it's still quiet during the work day on weekdays in downtown san francisco, but this is a contrast at night restaurants and bars are seeing some solid foot traffic people wanting to come into the city and we checked it with cell phone data and it backs up those 2 realities informing businesses that the nights are alive. so this morning we tested the same thing in oakland, just like san francisco downtown oakland is still kind of a shell of its pre pandemic self. when the sun is up. but it's getting busier. there's still an absence of people who work there during work hours, however, that same sort of thing. a different picture of oakland's recovery unveils itself at night. in the

evenings. and it shows some promise for the town as we'd like to say tarmac. are max darrow reports? it does come with some big gifts. >with another day of work at her oakland office complete monique rand's is headed home to san francisco. >like many people who work downtown, she's a hybrid worker and makes the commute a few times a week. >attendance has recently increased up from 2 days to 3 days a week. >but it's still pretty slow downtown. with hybrid work the norm. there is still an absence of people during the day that once kept the town busy. >

get a complete picture of downtown population patterns. now versus pre pandemic numbers rather than just office vacancy rates. the university of toronto's school of cities has been tracking downtown recovery rates for several years of the city's they track oakland's downtown is on the slower side when it comes to recovery during the monday to friday, working hours of 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.. it's at about 63%. of pre pandemic levels during the day. the cell phone data downtown activity jumps at night have a ring around 100% of pre pandemic levels. >which is why chef nelson, german and his team game plan for what would be a busy night at his restaurant. sobering, mesa, which as of lately has started to become the norm again. >nelson says he noticed things start to pick up a few months ago.

>juice, the restaurant business is never easy. but during a time when many have either chosen to or had no choice this but to leave oakland. chef nelson says he owes it to the town to be a part of its come back >

feel like it does get a bit of a bad rap. >well, she enjoys being in downtown oakland. the days shes in the office. does see how the permanence of hybrid work creates a major challenge for downtowns as they come back. or really come into a new version of themselves. >so when people are downtown she hopes they'll think to support local businesses 1st, so they can help move the >reed>max darrow reporting there. so while there is more activity after hours happening in oakland crime really remains a serious concern. now, despite his positivity about the town, chef nelson recently has had to deal with his own share of problems. his other restaurants all omar recently broke into his you saw on that surveillance video multiple times. that's a disappointment to the people who wait outside to have his food. monique's

employer has brought in more security to make people feel safer when they go to and from work, which she thinks is a step forward. we'll continue watching this tonight, max will have a story about san jose. there's a new political pressure to build housing for retired farm workers in half moon bay and this morning there is new support coming

this just in 8 people in fla. have been king. and 40 others. for others. i have been sent to the hospital after this bus overturned on state route 40. you're looking at the aftermath there from a helicopter and you see 1st responders there on the ground. it happened in marion county, which, if you don't know, the state of florida, it's just south of ocala, florida. sort of high withdrawal, said 53 farmworkers, 53. were on the bus. when it collided with a truck. two vehicles, then veered off the roadway. it went into the fence, 1 ending up on its side. investigators are still figuring out what caused those 2 vehicles to collide there, but we did want to get you that breaking news out of marion county, florida. it's 912 in the morning time now to get a look at what's happening today around the bay, and it's a critical 1 in the recall campaign, looking to oust d, a pamela price in the east bay in oakland, the alameda county board of supervisors is meeting to decide whether to hold a special election or add the

recall to the november ballot. a special election in august could cost the county 15 to $20,000. the other option would cost 4 million. but the general election ballot is already crammed with everything from a historic us senate contest to the rematch. in the 2020 presidential race. we'll be watching this 1 closely. he starting today in san francisco, the mayor's ossoff housing and community development will hold a virtual public lottery. for shirley chisholm village, it's named after the 1st black woman elected to the us congress, who was also a teacher and a public education activist. the village was constructed to accommodate some of the nearly 10,000 san francisco public school employees. it's the city's 1st 100% affordable housing for public school faculty. the development is set to open in the fall. and if you haven't go to youtube and type in shirley chisholm, you will see somebody who led and was so inspiring. in our world, but it's the talk of the town in half moon bay ahead of a vote tonight, let's

put the city in the spotlight. even california governor gavin newsom, he's closely watching this 1. it's controversial farmworker housing projects. we want to get you up to speed on that. let's 1st go back in time. the deadly mass shooting last year in that area really exposed what poor living conditions are farm workers were living in that coastal city. those photos showed that somewhere housed in storage shed shipping containers. no running water. half moon bay has really been under pressure since these photos came out to build more affordable housing for those who helped power are economy. and our farm workers sector. governor newsom, in fact, is threatening the city their of half moon bay with legal action if they delay approval of a housing project that they've got the renderings to they know where they want to put it. so at 930 this morning and about 16 minutes. local officials will debate about this issue that is now under scrutiny. jess. >hmm. may. gray is all around us, especially in those early morning hours, but into the afternoon. of course, we see a lot more sunshine in our

inland areas still stays cool and cloudy along the coast and there is the small day to day changes as we head into the next couple days, thanks to an area of high pressure directly offshore kind of driving in a similar weather pattern for us as we head into the next couple of days, so all the way into this afternoon notice how those clouds pull back along our coastline. we're left with sunnier skies and our inland areas from san jose stretching up in a richmond and concord. a little bit cloudy up into the north bay this afternoon. but other than that, it's beautiful, and it's dry and that's the big weather story for us day by day, we're really not seeing too many changes. we continue to see dry conditions into the next couple days into this weekend forecast as well. but as we take a look at our daytime highs all of our micro climates are doing something and just a little bit different. for example, you now know that we're dealing with those coastal clouds. they're going to stick around into the afternoon hours. just like yesterday's forecast, but it clears up fast into our inland areas into this afternoon 80s in the forecast for us near livermore all the way up into antioch, and then we have upper 70s. topping off our daytime highs down into the santa clara

valley with low 70s along 1, a 1 into the heart of redwood city. like i said, all of us are doing something just a little bit different, but on average, as we head into the next couple of days, the daytime highs are changing too much more. i mean, we're still sitting in the 70s and 80s as we head into the rest of this week forecast in our inland areas cooling down just a little bit more as we get closer to the weekend forecast. but if you look closer to the bay oakland or san francisco, for example, we'll see 60s stick around for us and our friday forecast a similar trend into this week. ken, and by next week, no change around the corner, so we'll give you updated on that as we head into the next couple of days. all >reed>right, speaking of heading into anything, how about this safety regulators are looking into waymo after reports of unexpected behavior as those cars head out on the

driving vehicles is robotaxis in we know this here from the bay area experience are facing a lot of scrutiny after the feds got 22 reports of them crashing or potentially violating traffic safety laws by driving in the wrong lane into construction zones. the mountain view company sent a statement touting their safety record, adding that n h. t s a plays an important role in road safety and they went on to say they will continue to work with them as part of their mission to become what they say will be the world's most trusted driver. we await meanwhile, we're anticipating the next chapter of driverless car testing in the bay area, so get ready in the coming weeks. google's autonomous car company waymo is expected to expand its presence. you'll start seeing them down on the peninsula employees on city streets north of san mateo can expect to ride around with no driver. service will eventually expand to fully autonomous test drives all the way. just sunnyvale and you know, while some of you commuters have already made robotaxis part of your routine, the company is running into some resistance from critics
